    Even after adding your website to the ‘unwanted referrals’ list, it might still show up due to a variety of reasons. The most common is caches and cookies not being cleared, meaning the changes haven’t been fully recognized or implemented yet. Also, any current users who already loaded the page before you made changes may still cause your website to appear as a referral. As for the page referrer not being reported, it could be because your website or the referring site is using the ‘noreferrer’ link attribute, which prevents the HTTP referer header from being sent. Additionally, it could be due to certain browser settings; for instance, some browsers do not send the referer information as a privacy measure. If the issue persists, you may want to consider seeking technical help or contact your analytics service for further investigation.
